Denver, Colorado

Treat the cause. Not the number.

I treat the physiology behind metabolic disease and reflux, not the number on a scale. You get a full evaluation, a clear explanation of what is happening in your body, and a plan built around the cause.

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty

Incisionless. No tissue removed.

ESG is performed entirely through an endoscope. The stomach is sutured from the inside. Nothing is cut away, and there are no external incisions. Very few physicians in Colorado perform it.

About ESG
  • Performed through an endoscope
  • No external incisions
  • No tissue removed
  • Anatomy left intact

Reflux Evaluation and Treatment

Reflux is underdiagnosed and undertreated.

Most surgeons skip the evaluation work and go straight to a treatment. I do not. The workup comes first, because reflux and metabolic health influence each other in both directions, and the right treatment depends on what is actually driving the symptoms.

About reflux care
  • Full diagnostic workup first
  • Symptoms mapped to a cause
  • Medical and surgical options
  • Treated as its own condition

Your surgeon

Dr. Wanda GoodDO

Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine — a fully licensed physician with the same scope of practice as an MD, plus additional training in how the musculoskeletal system and whole body work together.

She is a fellowship trained surgeon practicing in Denver [FELLOWSHIP: TBD]. Her work centers on metabolic disease, reflux, and endoscopic therapy, and she treats those conditions as physiology rather than a matter of willpower. Every plan starts with an evaluation and a plain explanation of what is happening in your body. You will know why a treatment is being recommended before you decide anything.
